- Although there is no official confirmation yet, many in the cryptocurrency community speculate that the attackers have managed to make off with about 13,000 ETH, which is a little bit less than $24 million.
- A couple of hours ago, a user shared that someone is doing arbitrage on the Irob Bank contracts of CREAM FINANCE. He determined that:
Looks like a hack. Looks like they have made off with 13K ETH and they have started sending several ETH through Tornado Cash in addition to 1,000 ETH to Alpha Homora Deployer, 1,000 ETH to Cream Finance, and 100 ETH to Tornado’s grant.
The story is developing.
